Spessartite garnet from Gemline a pear!

[Lovinggems]

Here's my new spessartite garnet from Gemline. It's pear shape 9.7 x 7.2mm.

The colour is very pretty, quite a bit more orangy (no brown that I can see) than my photos, maybe a bit less saturated, but a lot prettier in real life. I am not sure what I should do with it but I love TL's ring. Suggestions are most welcome.

The colour is closer to this hexagon gem from Gemnut.

Ring, pendant or if all ideas fail, you can send it to me.

I like TL''s DNA setting for the pear.

It''s a lovely spess.

I agree with chrono, pendent, ring...you just can''t go wrong with that beauty!

Yes sure, I''ll trade you for the Mahenge spinel pear.

Yes TL''s reset is truly lovely, but I don''t know if I should do a yellow bezel or get a LOGR.

Thank you Mochi. Umm maybe a pendant, I do have a small, loose OEC.

Pretty stone. I think it would look great in a DNA halo. Thanks for the compliments on my ring. I would love to see another pear spess in a DNA halo!!

Lovely!

I like the pendant idea with the diamond.

Gorgeous! I vote a halo style ring...........but I am definately a ring nut!!

 

[fierypyropixy]

That''s lovely, LG, much better than the one I tried from GemLine. Lucky!

Seems like a nice size for a ring, especially if you added a halo . . . but also a great pendant too. So I guess I''m no help. LOL

Thanks Brandy, Novel, OOO, MTG, MZ, TL, Arc, CCN, fiery and MarcyC.

I wish I have a suite of spess so I can get a ring, a pendant etc..

 

[gemgirl]

What a beautiful color and in one of my favorite shapes. Every year I say I''m going to choose a nice Spess to wear through October and November. So pretty!

Chrono you enabler! I''m thinking of getting a sugarloaf cab and I would love to have another spess pear.

 

[StonieGrl]

Beauteous! I think diamonds with that would be stunning. frosty coolness against that intense warmth.

Congrats on a great stone
